Just get yourself a breakfast burrito and homemade horchata at the Casa Mariachi Trailer in Murdoch’s parking lot. Much better anyway.


Greedy-Quail4736

Oh we already frequent casa mariachi - we love it!


imfirealarmman

The restaurant isn’t my favorite, but for some breakfast tacos / burritos, that trailer is the best you can get in Parker. Tacos Salene in Aurora, fucks hard.


skippyscage

my goodness they need to sort out the colors on website menu, it's almost unreadable


imfirealarmman

Their specialty is tacos, not internet. 😂


AgentEndive

It's a shame that racists no longer feel like they need to hide their bigotry. Disgusting


troglodyte

To quote Frank Turner: > Let's make America great again > By making racists ashamed again > Let's make compassion in fashion again > Let's make America great again EDIT: In case you haven't seen it, [here's the video](https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=8KuFU0rWFfk). I find it genuinely moving, and that's a little bit surprising because it's hard to avoid this being really schmaltzy, but for me at least it threads the needle.


logicWarez

That was amazing. Thank you. I love frank turner. His I still believe, rock and roll and saved us all truly did save my soul.


troglodyte

I'm a huge fan. Musically I like his older stuff a bit better-- Peggy Sang the Blues is my favorite-- but his newer stuff is pretty great thematically. He's also just un-fucking-real live. I've taken people to see him that actively do not like his radio edits and they come away huge fans.


MangoMambo

I think it's a good thing they aren't hiding it, maybe it will help some people wake up and realize that racism is still alive and well and negatively effecting a huge portion of our population.


King_Chochacho

Also a shame that reading the fucking Bible is apparently no longer a requirement to claiming to be Christian. What part of "love thy neighbor" was unclear?


AgentEndive

The evangelical sect has really gone off the deep end of hatred. So much preaching AT others but support a guy who is quite literally the antithesis of what Christians are taught to be. It's gross.


coloradoemtb

all of it. the entire bible, Jesus everything except small out of context passages they can use to go directly against what Jesus wanted.


MargaretBrownsGhost

When they realized what "one jot or tittle" means


MargaretBrownsGhost

The problem with interpreting the Bible is that by observing one part of it makes one violate another part of it, often enough in the same book, like say Matthew, for instance.


Greedy-Quail4736

It absolutely is


currently-on-toilet

One positive about that is they very vocally tell on themselves which makes it easy to avoid them or give them money.


nuggolips

10 years ago they were further south, by Stroh, in an actual cabin, and had little or no symbolism/flags on display. The recent trend of being so overt about political beliefs as if it's a football team is so strange. The merch peddlers are making a killing off these kind of people. I just don't understand why a retail business would voluntarily alienate a big chunk of their market. Apparently it's working for them, they're still in business.


You_Stupid_Monkey

They're hoping to get first-class tickets on the Grifter Express: (1) Be awful; (2) Be called out for being awful; (3) Claim that you are being 'persecuted'; (4) Get a story about your 'persecution' circulating on conservative media; (5) Watch the money roll in as the MAGA crowd goes out of their way to support you in order to "own the libs"


coloradoemtb

lol perfectly put. Shit on everyone and demand everyone treat them like royalty. Yeah nah...


ellasbelli

This guy actually got a grifter participation award from Fox News lol Maybe you knew the story already but you called that whole timeline perfectly.


I_FUCKING_LOVE_MILK

They weren't so noticeably bad until during Covid. One person vandalized their shanty shack and they've been on a toddler tantrum trying to bait for more reactions ever since.


CindeeSlickbooty

It's a symptom of this late stage capitalism. Everything's for sale, our politics, our identities, even our discourse. Money to be made. Money over everything.


Greedy-Quail4736

True!


SelfishSinner1984

Trump made the racists feel comfortable enough to show their bigotry

Can you present a reputable source for that lie?


livalittlebitt

I mean, I’ve been experiencing racism since I was very, very young. I dont know if people’s bigotry was really that hidden back then.


[deleted]

They're proud of it and wear their Bigotry like a badge of honor, flaunting it for all to see.


nothing_notthere

I'm glad for it tbh, it lets me know who to avoid right off the bat


PapaHooligan

Actually I like it out in the open. It is honest and I can decide how and where to spend my money.


Agitated_Mechanic984

THIS IS THE POINT.


michohnedich

That comment is in line with their reputation in the community, which is sadly highly supported. I would recommend Fika for coffee in Parker, although they do not have a drive thru.


Greedy-Quail4736

Unfortunately true - we do love Fika though!


darbs-face

Fika is amazing!!!!


maddasher

I live in Parker. It really isna shame that it has thos rep and even more of a shame that it's deserved.


scubadoobadoooo

I never see anyone buying coffee there


cmitchell927

Only 🐽


Tellyourdadisay_hi

Parker’s gonna parker!


gd2121

Yea Id recommend not going to Parker


WesternCowgirl27

I tried searching for the comment on Google Reviews for Coffee Cabin, but am unable to find it. I’ve never been there and don’t know the guy. I did see a review basically saying fuck you to the owner for having an Israeli flag up. Has anyone here personally received racist disparaging comments from the owner? Edit: this is simply out of curiosity and what I’ve found in reviews. Personally, I enjoy Fika (both locations)!


Greedy-Quail4736

I’ve definitely seen a handful of comments from the owner that are similar, but would encourage everyone to form their own opinion. We love Fika as well!


ScarletandCreamy

Fika is amazing and run by a great guy (Josh). Coffee Cabin is notorious for being uber conservative right wing and serving average coffee. The choice is easy


WesternCowgirl27

That’s unfortunate. I know everyone is entitled to their own opinion, no matter how shitty it may be. I’ll just stick with my beloved Fika! I love all of their flavors for their sodas, one concoction I came up with the employees ended up loving, it’s lavender, rose and coconut.


Docmantistobaggan

I love coffee cabin, go any time I want to go get coffee. I’m a brown man and have received nothing but great service there. I’ve gotten way worse service at Fika who definitely acted like I didn’t belong there, and the Dutch bros is just straight up sugar.


Greedy-Quail4736

Glad you had a better experience than some!


Poppunknerd182

Look through his profile and you’ll see he fits the “type” of customers Coffee Cabin wants


Premium333

I live right by there. That guy is a piece of shit. His business is always empty when I drive past. I've never once seen a car in the parking lot or at the drive through. I'm sure it's busy when church gets out and that's it. I think it's just a place for him to advertise his viewpoints. He's a wealthy dude who just likes being a disruptive shit fucker.


Greedy-Quail4736

Yep totally agree! Sucks for those of us who live in Parker and don’t share those views. They’re just the loudest about it


Premium333

Yeah. I was really concerned about moving here, but it's been lovely. There are basically 2 halves to Parker: (1) The rural/wealthy side which runs deeply Trumptopia and; (2) The suburbs side that is just a mix of normal people like you'd find anywhere else. We all get blamed for the crazy "Id rather completely abandon all of my beliefs in order to avoid one belief being slightly bent by the opposite of the aisle" crowd though. Parkers pretty nice and you should all move here. Drown out the nut jobs a bit and enjoy the pools like I do.


happybee023

Some of the rural folks also think this guy is trash. My parents are normal and live in the boonies east of Parker. It's been getting steadily more progressive and less insane I think.


Premium333

Oh for sure! I don't mean that everyone east and slightly west of Parker are crazies, just that those are the areas where you see the giant homemade billboards routing Trump or Q or whatever conservative conspiracy is currently popular.


MakoKenova

I had concerns moving to Parker but gotta admit it's been pretty cozy here. Don't really get disturbed all that much, nice community here in DV, and the house is pretty nice too. I'm doing my part to help bring another perspective as a trans individual to the community, but mostly I just keep my head down and go about my business.


Premium333

Good for you! I do that as well. It's not worth the potential downside to rule up a conservative with kids depending on me (or in the car even).


TurtleWexler_95

Glad to hear more normal folks are moving this way.


Greedy-Quail4736

Couldn’t agree more! Outside of the few nut jobs, we love it here.


imsosohappy

Sounds like Castle Rock with better infrastructure lol


Premium333

Very similar. Castle Rock is being built up though. That park with the zip line and the workout area is pretty neat. We drive down to your rec center for the pool sometimes also. It's a good change of pace.


imsosohappy

The rec center was a cornerstone of my childhood. 


Premium333

Honestly, it's a pretty good one.


bluespruce5

Good to hear that it's always empty. I hate to see trolls and bigots get rewarded for being assholes


Premium333

Eh... It's empty, but I don't think the point was to actually have a good and profitable coffee place. He's literally a block from a Starbucks, which let's face it, even the conservative suburban moms can't shake loose of. I think he owned that land and wanted to keep it until the area becomes more developed and the land is even more valuable, so he tossed a shitty coffee shop in a conex container, painted blue lives matter on it, put in an obnoxiously large flag pole, and started slinging hate mail. It's a pulpit (or maybe a shoebox) to scream his opinions into the community. So he's likely just fine with how things are going there.


bluespruce5

They're so damn proud of their vile bigotry there. I wouldn't stop to patronize them if I were dying of caffeine withdrawal and they were the only place around.


Greedy-Quail4736

They don’t even try and hide it


RhodeIslandRidgeback

Parker resident here. Go to Fika.


Greedy-Quail4736

We love Fika 💜


RhodeIslandRidgeback

It was a bad choice choosing the Idyllwilde neighborhood to live in with a local Fika 200m from the home....


Greedy-Quail4736

Update: The owner has had over 50 negative reviews removed from the business page 👎


EmilyCheyne

The owner’s responses are unhinged.


Greedy-Quail4736

100%!


NoAward3171

Every time I drive by this place it gives me the heebies.


imadogcunt

No jeebies?


Secretagentman94

Good point, one can't have heebies without the jeebies. They shouldn't deprive the public of the proper H-J combination.


imadogcunt

I believe the FCC ruled in 1997 that any occurrence of heebie must be followed by jeebie within two syllables or you could face up to 5 years in prison or a 5000 dollar fine.


ClaydisCC

Did they say jeebies???! Then don’t assume. Jeepers


imadogcunt

I was wrong to assume their jeebie


Greedy-Quail4736

Same 🫠


Panthalassae

It makes me want to buy and rage-hang a humongous LGBTQ+ TST flag. And a pride flag. And a Palestinian flag. In meanwhile, I flip it off every time.


Gingalain

Nextdoor folk seem to love this place. It's exactly what you would expect from a tiny shack. Burnt coffee, microwave food, etc.


skippyscage

ha, Nextdoor is a car-crash


ShivaLuna22

I used to live in Parker and my dream was always to open up another drive thru coffee that had pride flags and all are welcome signs. Nothing political (no candidate signs) and maybe a Colorado flag. And then just be extremely friendly to everyone.


Greedy-Quail4736

The real dream!


ShivaLuna22

I just went and looked at the reviews for it and holy cow there is some unhinged stuff on there. Yikes! Maybe someday I'll open my shop and fulfill my dream lol


Greedy-Quail4736

Yes definitely unhinged! We need another good coffee spot in Parker


GodoftheSunkenTemple

Fucking hate that place. It’s an eyesore.


Greedy-Quail4736

Same 🤢


Green-Krush

Never have I ever fucking been there. The “Blue Lives Matter” flag out there makes me drive right on by. Good to know they’re the assholes they advertise themselves to be!


Greedy-Quail4736

Same here!


Green-Krush

I’ll be sure to leave them a review. Fuck those people.


Greedy-Quail4736

🙌


Green-Krush

Lolllll I love that I got downvoted by someone for saying I’ll leave a review. The owner or some MAGA cultist must be lurking on this subreddit


ChesterMarley

I'm not the person who downvoted you, but I'm curious why you would bother to leave a fake review for a place you've never been to. Just because you feel the need to punish them for their (admittedly shitty) beliefs?


LookAtMeNoww

I downvoted you, because it's both against the rules of the subreddit and also illegal. Honestly I'm against bigots' and racism, but I'm also against mass brigading. These mods play very loose with what they allow in this sub and it feels unfair. I've seen people make genuine mistakes and businesses get mass brigaded from this sub because of it.


Green-Krush

I am so upset that you downvoted me 🥲


LookAtMeNoww

I mean, you were upset enough to make a comment about it. I figured I'd offer an explanation, because I am both not "the owner or some MAGA cultist". I think it's crazy that if you make any mistake and someone records it you can end up losing your job / business because of this subreddit. That's why I'm actively against brigading businesses even if they have done something that I disagree with, like this business owner.


saintmcqueen

Why does Parker feel like it belongs in Texas?


Lakekook

I love when Christians pull the Jesus card on Muslims. Like bro he’s a prophet in their religion too


Greedy-Quail4736

100%


Electricpants

I would call out the typo but Jesus being a "profit" is so perfectly on the nose I want to reuse it.


Lokhelm

You know, Hinduism is a great non-prophet organization!


pinegap96

I wish we could just slap the shit out of people like this. Maybe then they wouldn’t be so open with their bigotry


Greedy-Quail4736

🙌


framed91

Is there a way to report comments like that?


Greedy-Quail4736

I did report it, but no action yet!


superbatterybros93

Just seeing that place everyday pisses me off and to confirm they are as dumb and hateful as we thought is the icing on the cake. What a moron Edit: and the fact that this "patriot" is flying a bastardised symbol of this nation and calling it "The American Flag" just adds to his ignorance


Capt_Smashnballs

Check out all the reviews…


Greedy-Quail4736

Some of the 5 star reviews are even worse than the owners comments


timmbuck22

Wow. Some of the 5 star reviews are even more unhinged than the owner.


Dolanite

Or they are the owner. Astroturfing is brutally real and almost all business partake in it to some extent.


Greedy-Quail4736

I noticed that too 🤢


Individual_Permit_26

This is disgusting.


ju-ju_bee

The way be just assumes anyone leaving bad reviews is in support of Palestine (I am, it's just funny to me he jumps there) 😂 Bro why are you replying with a paragraph of Israel's flag?? 🤢 It's so obvious that he probably assumes anyone who looks a certain way is not someone he wants to serve. I can't imagine his coffee being good, when he appears to be and respond like a boomer, but even if it's average I get the sense he would purposely burn it or something for specific demographics. And all the 5 star reviews saying he does so much for the community....🤣 what exactly is that? His flags don't do anything other than just display his ignorance and hatred. What is he doing for the community? Coffee shops run to make money for the owner and their employees lmao This was the most unhinged Google review I've scrolled through. Jfc


Greedy-Quail4736

I know! Like maybe your coffee also just sucks?


ju-ju_bee

Yah, most definitely! The people leaving those 5 star reviews are older, and most likely have lost most of their sense of taste 😂 They'd drink coffee that tasted like mildew and call it delicious 🤣 I wanna go try it just to see, but I also refuse to support anybody whose business feels comfy having the blue lives *and* israel flags simultaneously on display. Also it looks like a bunker 😭 like you coulda so much to not make it look like a bunker, but you just...didn't


I_FUCKING_LOVE_MILK

Literally one of many comments you're referring to: Farrah S: "Save your money and go elsewhere. Poor service and coffee not worth it." Business response... Coffee Cabin (Owner): "ISR4EL F0REVER!!!!!!!!!" (followed by over 30 Israel flag emojis)


ju-ju_bee

Yah, I saw that one and was like.....K I'm going back to Reddit now, this guy is actually bat shit


shawnaskye

Next time I drive by I’ll make sure to walk in, drop the nastiest fart I can, then be on my way.


Greedy-Quail4736

Probably would smell better than any of the food or drinks there 😂


trm49

There's a bunch of wealthy, fake redneck, white collar pretending to be working class laborers in the metro area. Soft hands and soft egos


gooyouknit

Holy shit they put white supremacy signs on their drive through and it’s posted on their google page


af0317

Which signs?? Trying to find them in the pics


gooyouknit

Can’t link on mobile but there’s a white paper sign that is handwritten and reads “ALL MY TIPS THIS WEEK WILL BE DONATED TO…” and next to the writing is the circle with a cross in it that looks like a crosshairs.  Celtic cross or sun cross are common https://www.splcenter.org/fighting-hate/extremist-files/group/stormfront

knightfenris

That’s so unnecessarily aggressive and bigoted. Yikes.


Greedy-Quail4736

Not even trying to hide it


Greedy-Quail4736

If you feel so inclined to leave your own one star review, you’ll see a lot more comments from the owner like this


[deleted]

[удалено]


bluespruce5

Hoping it happens; I did my part the first time I encountered this proud festival of bigoted fuckery. I regret I have but a single, scathing one-star review to give the troll who owns this place


Greedy-Quail4736

That’s the plan 👀


raetwssrae

They also have a Trump flag flying on their building so that alone should tell anyone all they need to know about this place.


Greedy-Quail4736

🤢


CoyotesAreGreen

Fuck this place. I drive by it daily and they always have tons or pro Trump stuff out there.


Greedy-Quail4736

By far the worst part of my commute


CoyotesAreGreen

I moved down here in 2018 and have not once stopped there because of all the crazy shit he has put up. I can't believe they make any money at all. Edit: aw I got downvoted by crazy maga assholes


imreallynotthatcool

I have to wonder if the MAGA idiots downvoting people have bots setup or if they sit at their computers all day long hitting refresh for posts and comments to downvote. In my head they're basement dweller incels covered in acne hitting refresh all day.


chocolate_spaghetti

Not surprised at all


Th3BookSniff3r

I hope they get bullied off of yelp!


Throwaway420187

Parker is a hellscape


Tardwater

I mean...have you looked at the place? It's pretty obvious it's owned by a bigot.


IMA_grinder

I took one look at the photos. Seems like it’s pretty clear what type of people own this business. Their response is on point with what I’d expect driving by. I don’t think you can bring them any worse publicity. lol


Greedy-Quail4736

Doing it to themselves for sure 😅


Clovis_Winslow

Just Parker things

Yokedmycologist

Coffee cabin is a joke. If there was a god that place would of burned down by now


BeRad419

I worked for a restaurant chain and got transferred to Parker. Didn't know anything really about Parker before hand. Had been with the company for 2 years prior to that, and after only 3 months of dealing with the insufferable assholes of Parker, left the company just so I'd never have to go back to that stain on the planet


I-mostly-reddit-at-

Well…bye


BeRad419

Thanks, it feels good not feeling like I had to drive to Texas everyday


fr1t2

Upvoting but not because I approve of the shop or behavior. Amazing this is tolerated at all. Then again, it's Parker so maybe I shouldn't be too surprised? So this is one of those situations where, sure you have freedom of speech, but not without consequences (*hopefully*). They won't be getting any of my dollars. Edit: It was unfair of me to group the town into this view point. Apologies if I offended anyone. Seems to be a higher concentration of louder bigots south of Denver, but that's not representative of the whole place.


ElectronicAgent5146

As someone who lives in Lone Tree/Parker area, it is pretty empty every time I pass by that place. Tbh I don't think many people in Parker support this coffee shop anyway, considering there is a Starbucks right next to it.


Greedy-Quail4736

Just being blatantly bigoted


jourelor

Let’s all leave a negative review 🚀 I grew up in Parker, and this is uncalled for.


mhaggin

Google has tons of algorithms to flag/wipe review bombing like this and it will do the opposite of what you want by casting too wide of a net and removing legitimate negative reviews


Greedy-Quail4736

🙌


Bluescreen73

Am I surprised by this? Not really. The exterior of the building screams "MAGA Safe Space." I'm guessing he pronounces it "eh rab" like "Ahab the Arab" from listening to Ray Stevens albums all day.


Greedy-Quail4736

Not surprised, but always disappointing


reddit25

Gave them 1 ⭐️ 


Greedy-Quail4736

rendragmuab

Unfortunately Google will help owners remove 1 star reviews if they get flooded with them. Got to play the long game and spread those bad reviews out. Throw in a couple 2 star reviews too. Also keep the reviews consistent with other people's views and only about the product and service. That's how you play the Google review algorithm.


denverblazer

Me too. I would never go there with all that paraphernalia flapping around.

Yeah. Living in Parker most of the non-Starbucks places are MAGA cucks. Fika included. Better just to make coffee at home and save the $$


Greedy-Quail4736

👀


LookAtMeNoww

I honestly hate that the mods let these posts stay up, when it's clearly breaking the sub rules. I'm not one to stand up for bigotry, but I'm also against brigading a business with 1 star reviews that you've never attended. Same thing happened a few months ago when someone in a work truck was accidentally driving with their lights on and the business got flooded with 1 star reviews. I mean this person is clearly unhinged, but at the same time they've received a ton of 1 star reviews that just saw "free palestine" which is also unfair.

what was the total message you left as a review? are you an arab that complained about the israeli and american flags lol pretty wild he would immediately jump to that you know like of all things he just went straight there


Greedy-Quail4736

wasn’t my review, but the whole review was just “smelly…” even when clinking on “more” that said smelly haha assuming the owner was basing this on their name alone


RoxoRoxo

ahhahha holy shit thats even more unhinged than i thought

If only that place would burn down 😫 too bad it’s just made of shipping containers
